TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Dept. of No Surprises: Graham Platner’s political career swims with the fishes (and his oysters) after dropping out of the race for the Senate...The  Washington Free Beacon has compiled a list of the Democrats who disgraced themselves the most in their support of Platner. They include: Ro Khanna, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and former Biden adviser Ron Klain. Worth noting: Hollywood in Toto points out that Jon Stewart “fawned over” Platner in an April interview on his podcast and compared his rise in Democratic politics to the classic Hollywood film about a political novice “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington”...Word of the day: Tsedoodelt (“tsuh-DOO-delt”). Yiddish expression meaning muddled or very confused. Seems like the most accurate way to describe Trump at the NATO summit yesterday in Turkey where he referred to the “Islamic Republic of Japan” and called President Zelensky of Ukraine President Putin (The New Republic)...The editorial board of the Trump-supporting NY Post scoffs at the president’s assertions that the cease-fire with Iran is over. “Frankly, Trump should’ve never agreed to a cease-fire deal in the first place,” the editors wrote, “certainly not one that made generous concessions to Iran, as this one did, while getting virtually bupkis in return”...Gag alert: Florida’s Palm Beach International Airport officially changes its name to the Donald J. Trump International Airport today. The Palm Beach Post reports that the first aircraft to land at the airport was Trump Force One (natch), the Trump Organization plane. Don Jr. and Bettina Trump were aboard the flight....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Platner Is a Hilarious Symptom of Progressive Failure

The Democrat establishment, those ancient, corrupt, sleazeball party hacks, keep humiliating the eager Leftists, and they keep taking it. Their repeating the mantra “Vote blue, no matter who” is like slapping a “Kick Me” sign on their collective collectivist back.
